Zelensky is ready to leave the presidency once the war with Russia is over; his main goal is to finish the war, not hold elections during conflict.
The 2024 presidential election was suspended due to martial law after Russia’s 2022 invasion.
Zelensky will ask parliament to hold elections if a ceasefire and security conditions allow.
His focus remains on helping Ukraine in wartime rather than clinging to power amid ongoing conflict.
Ukraine’s constitution allows Zelensky’s term extension under martial law until elections can be safely held.

Nicolas Sarkozy was sentenced to five years for criminal conspiracy linked to accepting campaign funds from Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi for his 2007 presidential run.
The Paris court found he allowed aides to seek financial support from Libya in exchange for diplomatic favors, though it could not prove direct use of Libyan money in the campaign.
Sarkozy was acquitted of other charges like passive corruption and illegal campaign financing due to lack of conclusive evidence.
The case originated from 2013 allegations by Gaddafi’s son about Libya funding Sarkozy’s campaign with €50 million through intermediaries.
Sarkozy denies wrongdoing, calling the verdict politically motivated, but the conviction marks the first for a former French president for such charges.
